I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World-Chapter 155 Su Wuming’s Unlucky Daily Life

When Han Zheng first arrived at the Demon Cleansing Bureau, it was Yang Tianqi who took him under his wing, familiarizing him with the bureau and answering all his questions.

As it happened, just a few months had passed, and Han Zheng had already stepped into the Xuan Gang Realm, becoming a Demon Sweeping Captain.

Although Yang Tianqi had long known that Han Zheng possessed extraordinary talent, he still felt somewhat dazed and unreal at this moment.

Han Zheng nodded, "Before this, I had already entered the Half-step Xuan Gang Realm. The battle at Guiyuan Sword Pavilion this time earned me quite a few Merit Points, which allowed me to amass enough to break through to the Xuan Gang Realm in one go, thanks to some good luck."

Yang Tianqi said with delight, "Then this is double happiness coming our way! Today we can celebrate both you, Brother Han, and Brother Ye making breakthroughs.

Right, there's also Brother Su. Half a month ago, I saw him exchange for Elixir to go into seclusion, but I haven't heard any news yet."

Su Wuming had actually entered the Half-step Xuan Gang Realm even before Han Zheng. He had long sensed his True Yuan, only lacking the final step of strengthening and refining it throughout his body.

In the last battle at Guiyuan Sword Pavilion, Han Zheng and Su Wuming were assigned to different positions, so he wasn't aware of Su Wuming's accomplishments.

However, he could imagine that Su Wuming's achievements must not have been weak either; he most likely earned a considerable number of Merit Points as well.

Standing to one side, Tang Jingyan bowed deeply to Han Zheng, "I've seen you, my benefactor!"

Han Zheng released a gentle stream of True Yuan from his hand, lifting Tang Jingyan to her feet.

"Why are you calling me 'my benefactor' again?"

Tang Jingyan's eyes were red as she said, "It was you, my benefactor, who avenged Uncle Fu for me. I've already heard that the demon Yao Zijing died at your hands."

"Don't say that. Killing him was not about avenging you; he deserved to die.

Moreover, it's a bit awkward to be called 'my benefactor' within the Demon Cleansing Bureau. It wouldn't sound good to others.

You can call me Brother Han like Ye Caiyun does, or by my official title, just don't call me 'my benefactor'."

The term 'my benefactor' felt uncomfortable to Han Zheng.

"Mr. Han."

Tang Jingyan called out softly.

She was still not very familiar with Han Zheng and seemed somewhat restrained.

When Han Zheng went to exchange for the Purple Gold Sky Wolf Armor, he once again caused a sensation with Sister Taozi.

She had been in the Demon Cleansing Bureau for many years, and Han Zheng was the fastest advancing person she had ever seen.

He had started with the Silver Patterned Armor, quickly moved to the Gold Pattern, and now he was directly donning the Purple Gold Sky Wolf Armor.

If being a Team Leader in the Golden Pattern Armor was not yet considered an official, then becoming a Demon Sweeping Captain was definitely a bona fide mid-level officer of the Demon Cleansing Bureau.

He could easily be put in charge of a city or an average State Mansion.

Han Zheng arranged to have dinner with Yang Tianqi and Ye Liuyun that evening to celebrate, but he ran into Su Wuming just as he was about to leave.

However, Su Wuming's condition didn't look good.

He was pale with weak vital energy, as if he had suffered serious injuries.

Han Zheng was startled, "Brother Su, what happened to you? Didn't you go into seclusion? Did you have to come out for a mission and fight a fierce battle?"

Su Wuming's current state resembled someone who had just fought desperately, burning up his vital energy.

With a wry smile, Su Wuming gently shook his head, "No, I ran into a snag while cultivating and did this to myself.

I had hoped to directly break through to the Xuan Gang Realm in one concerted effort. However, just when my True Yuan was about to spread throughout my last meridian, there was a problem with the flow of True Qi, leading to a conflict between True Yuan and True Qi, nearly destroying one of my meridians.

Luckily, I managed to suppress my body with the burning of my vital energy and reorganized my meridians. There's no significant problem now.

It's just a pity that I couldn't make the breakthrough to the Xuan Gang Realm in one go, wasting the Heavenly Spirit Jade Dew Pills I had been saving for a long time."

Han Zheng felt helpless hearing this.

A conflict during the transformation from True Qi to True Yuan?

Most martial artists couldn't even imagine there being a problem in this area, yet Su Wuming had encountered it.

Nevertheless, it seemed Su Wuming had grown accustomed to setbacks and wasn't too discouraged.

Experiencing problems once or twice during a breakthrough was a good thing; it meant there was a good chance he would succeed next time.

On the contrary, if he didn't face problems during his cultivation, Su Wuming would be the one on guard.

Because if there was no problem this time, there might be an even bigger issue waiting for him next time.

"Brother Han, you've succeeded in stepping into the Xuan Gang Realm? Congratulations."

Despite his own failed breakthrough, Su Wuming wasn't too despondent and sincerely congratulated Han Zheng.

Beside them, Yang Tianqi added, "Right, Brother Su, since we're planning to have dinner tonight to celebrate Brother Han's and Brother Ye's..."

Speaking halfway, Yang Tianqi immediately shut his mouth, realizing he perhaps shouldn't have said those things.

Inviting Su Wuming to celebrate after his cultivation breakthrough failed seemed a little inappropriate.

"Sure."

Su Wuming, however, didn't mind at all and nodded in agreement.

For Su Wuming, failing was the norm. His failure this time meant he should be able to break through next time, which was also something to celebrate.

Han Zheng patted Yang Tianqi on the shoulder and said, "Brother Su may not talk much, but he has a free and easy character. He doesn't have so many taboos.

I've just made a breakthrough to the Xuan Gang Realm, and I have some insights that you might find useful, Brother Su."

The experience notes that Han Zheng used for his breakthrough to the Xuan Gang Realm belonged to Wen Tingyun and were actually not supposed to be shared.

However, Han Zheng was not giving Wen Tingyun's notes directly to Su Wuming. Instead, he added his own insights and detailed various aspects meticulously.

After all, although Han Zheng spent part of his time cultivating in the Taotie Furnace, his perceptions were real and even more suitable for someone like Su Wuming, who frequently encountered unexpected problems.

"Thank you, Brother Han."

"There's no need for formalities between us."

After agreeing on a time, Han Zheng went to report to Xu Cunbao first and to help him with public service paperwork.

Su Wuming, on the other hand, was there to exchange for some healing elixirs, as his cultivation mishap had caused some damage to his life force and blood.

Donning the Purple Gold Sky Wolf Armor, Han Zheng went to find Xu Cunbao.

"Elder Xu, where should I start?"

Xu Cunbao handed Han Zheng a basket full of papers: "These are intelligence reports sent by Demon Sweeping Captains from various places, and some are from Xuanjia Guards stationed at key points from the Yu Character Camp.

These need to be sorted out. Put the news-related ones together, put others that require my decision with each other, and preferably arrange them by the severity of the issues."

Looking at the basket full of papers, Han Zheng felt overwhelmed, and it was tough for Xu Cunbao too, who at his age, was still continuously reading these reports, straining his eyes till they blurred.

Han Zheng sat beside Xu Cunbao and started to meticulously go through the papers, gaining quite some insight.

Before this, Han Zheng had some understanding of the overall strength of the Southern Mountain Demon Cleansing Department, but as he went through the papers one by one, he got a general idea.

To sum it up, the Southern Mountain Demon Cleansing Department was having a hard time.

Decades ago, the Department had undergone the calamity of the Black Mountain Demon. At that time, the Black Mountain Demon had rallied many forces from the Martial World, causing chaos in the Southern Mountain and dealing a significant blow to the Department.

Later, Chen Baxian rose to power, took charge of the Southern Mountain Demon Cleansing Department, and, although he defeated the Black Mountain Demon, the department's strength never fully recovered and remained weak.

While Chen Baxian was in charge, his formidable power could deter the opportunists.

But now that Chen Baxian was gone, most of the Garrison Captains he led were also taken away, and the local situation was becoming increasingly chaotic.

In some places, demon-caused disasters broke out, and the Demon Cleansing Department's personnel were stretched thin. With one wave of suppression followed by another, if they couldn't keep up, they had to request reinforcements from headquarters.

What's more, local Martial World powers were starting to stir, and the local Demon Sweeping Captains couldn't suppress them, leaving them no choice but to consult with headquarters about whether to endure for now or to fight.

In short, half of the papers were various intelligence reports, and the other half were either requests for assistance or inquiries to headquarters for strategies.

It wasn't until nightfall that Han Zheng finally finished sorting out these papers.

"How do you feel?"

Xu Cunbao smiled and looked at Han Zheng.

Han Zheng rubbed his eyes and sighed, "Our Southern Mountain Demon Cleansing Department has it tough."

Xu Cunbao nodded and said, "The Southern Mountain Demon Cleansing Department has it tough, but the disciples stationed at various places have it even tougher.

Inside Kai Ping Prefecture, at least we have Chen Zhenfu and a few of us old folks holding down the fort.

But out there, they have to bear it alone.

If things were not unbearable, they wouldn't send reports to headquarters for advice – doesn't that make them seem incompetent?

Alas, these are troubled times.

We thought that after suppressing the Guiyuan Sword Pavilion, Southern Mountain would be somewhat peaceful.

Who knew that chaos would still ensue everywhere, even worse than before.

Alright, go rest now. You've worked hard today."

"Elder Xu is the one who has truly worked hard."

Han Zheng's words were not mere flattery but were sincerely meant.

All he had to do was categorize these things, while Xu Cunbao had to make difficult decisions.

A single order to fight or to stand down, who knows what the result would be, how many lives would be lost.
